Re: restrict access to modules/repositories in cvsweb

[Gary Heuston]

I don't think cvsweb has this function built in, but it is just a perl
script...you could add the features you want easily enough.  I would
probably set up a separate instance for each repository though, it will
cause less headache in the long run as you will have less security issues
to worry about..
